Silent Reading, chapter 17. I just really like priests descriptions of the city:

The night had turned sultry without any warning; the summer heat was oppressive. Birds occasionally hurtled daringly through the sea of cars, almost skimming the ground, hinting that a rainstorm was about to strike.

Friday’s evening rush hour regularly lasted longer than usual, but luckily this was the last day of the traffic restriction. The city center was warming up for the weekend. The enormous outdoor Skyscreen unfolded, dazzling the eye with its scrolling LEDs. These nighttime lights relentlessly pursued all the people coming and going and crossed over the wide road to flash over Luo Wenzhou’s car, ceasing hostilities only when he had thoroughly wound his way into the complicated streets of the West District.

#silent reading #lb #also the canteen shrimp scene just happened and book wise? its great setup of the characters as equally intelligent #cause fei du is on luos thought processes but also Smart enough to notice either #luo is hiding info or luos made a mistake. its just a good foreshadowing of: theyll make good crime solving partners #and rhen also how they fight but luo tries to be patient as rhe bigger man lmao. and fei du will reign in #himself too if luo does first.#i do think tho. the show justice in the dark did this scene way more romantic tho #without luos narrative pov insulting fei du xonstantly lmao #the show comes off much fonder #of course. ohe could argue luo is lying to gimself like zhou zishu lies about hating wen kexing #rahter than being intrigued.#but luo comes off as self aware and honrst to himself. so i tend to believe his narrative pov as his #genuine thoughts most of the time
